| Quote Adeybull="Adeybull"In fairness, how do you think the Hull FC fans felt when we signed McNamara, Vaikona and Radford?
We don't have to like it; we just have to accept that without a rich owner then what went round has come round.
'"
McNamara - indifferent
Radford - slightly peeved
Vaikona - suicidal
To be fair, do you guys not investigate rumoured signings for your club? This isn't some kind of delusional "big club" attitude from Hull fans, we're simply interested in players that the press link us too.
I hope you manage to retain all of your talented young players, and your new management restores Bradford back to "big club" status. The entire league misses the numbers you used to attract.

Shame that it was met with the usual vitriol on here by supposed fans of the club. There really are a lot of s that follow the Bulls.
FWIW, Crookes can go for me. He has been around for ages and has either been too rubbish or too injured to have any impact on the team. A few decent games this season has seemingly blinkered our "knowledgable" support.
Just another Dave Halley and if Pryce and Kear were available he would not get a look in. Would not be a loss.

| Welcome back ME. Koppy has been around for ages, and no doubt you have said, FWIW, that he could go. good call. So lets look at your preferences: Pryce is in todays TnA saying [i"It’s been difficult on occasions when we’ve lost and I’ve been stuck out on the wing."[/i he of course does have the option of doing what TV or LV or even Gareth Raynor more recently would do, which is a few drives up the middle himself, for the sake of his own team mates. It is a team game. Crookes, 1000% more effort in attack and defence. Kear yes you have a point, but comparing his and Crookes STANDARDISED stats to the point they were injured, the only stat Kear was significantly better than Crookes was offloads, the rest were much of a muchness. so why one or the other, given they are no different, why not both?

Had do you know Mick Potter isn't telling Pryce not to get too heavily involved with carting the ball up.

| Let me rephrase that for you. Do I know that Potter is telling Pryce to stay out on the wing and do nothing to help his team mates. No I don't have the hotline to Potters thoughts, but what do you think Potter is telling him? You're a 6' 5" 18 stone wing with a bit of pace, best to stay out of trouble on the wing than damage your complexion with a few drives up the middle?

I think Potter must have told him to hide behind the billboards, 19th in the Bulls league for carries is pathetic for a bloke of that size & ability.

| I've not noticed him shirking and he missed the first few games. He's run it in hard, made his tackles and taken what chances have come his way. The problem with Pryce is we haven't got the ball wide quick enough or often enough. I don't see what he's done wrong tbf.

| Pryce is the new Platt. Once certain people don't like him, they are blind to whatever he does, even if he made 200 carries, 20km and did 500 tackles and hit -ups while scoring a triple hat-trick, they would never give him any credit.
I haven't been his biggest fan, to say the least, but not unfairly, and always retain an open mind and eyes. Both have been pretty impressed with Pryce in the current incarnation, he's had some decent games, especially when he played as emergency full-back, and I can't see he's done anything to justify the continued bile. People should give credit where it's due, and in his case, it is.

Agree with both of those assessments.
And if he comes in off his wing looking for work, and some bugger on the other side gets hold of the ball and wings it out wide and past him then folk would be on his back for leaving a gap out wide? Seems to me he is damned whatever he does? Without knowing what Potter's gameplan is, its hard to form an objective view.

| I've never bagged Platt, or Sykes, because every crap game I saw them play they gave everything. Both have become internationals on the back of it, with a fraction of the natural ability of Pryce. He should be one of the first names on McBanana's England sheet. Instead he is still stealing a wage based on what he could do, albeit not as blatantly as times in the past.
